    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      In many scenarios, it could be useful to assign a group as member (subgroup) of another group.

      At the moment this can be implemented by givin users memberships in both groups, but every new user needs to be manually added to both groups. In this case if you wanted to remove the membership for a subgroup, you need to do it on an user basis, which can be very time consuming if you have a big user base.
